What does landscaping include?

When you book your landscaper, it’s important to let them know in your task exactly what work you need to be done - from simple maintenance services to a complex landscape design for your outdoors. That way, they’ll be able to make you a fair offer and bring along the right tools for the job. 

Not sure where to start? If you need a range of general landscaping services, grab a notepad and pen, then go for a wander outside. Make a note of anything that needs tidying up, trimming, or removing. Then make sure you include these tasks in your listing. 

Another way to think about your landscaping is to break it down by the type of specialised skill or service you need, such as installing a water feature or irrigation system, designing garden beds, or planning the landscape of your pool area. Here are some of the jobs you might give to your landscaper and what you can expect to happen during the process.

Planning

When you’re undertaking a BIG change, it’s important to lay the groundwork with some planning first. A garden designer will help come up with ideas and map everything out on paper before you get started on your garden space makeover. Or you might hire a landscape architect to plan a larger commercial landscaping project in your local community or public outdoor space.

Earth and rocks

Don’t break your back over your backyard landscaping - no matter how little or how much you need to do. You can hire earthmoving contractors to do your trench digging, levelling, and even your pool excavation or boring excavation. They’ll bring the all tools and equipment needed to dig and move the earth so you (literally) don’t have to get your hands dirty.

Gardens

Planning a nice new garden bed to grow your own veggies, flower beds, shady trees, or just want to reduce the amount of ground you have to mow in your yard? Get some help with your garden landscaping and garden edging to get the project off your to-do list and done sooner. That way, you can get on with the fun bit in landscaping - planting!

Water

Where there are plants, there’s water. Make sure your plants get water when they need it (without having to remember to hose) with a drip irrigation system or a sprinkler system installation. Or make your garden more beautiful with a garden pond or water features. Either way, getting your water systems sorted is so much quicker and easier with an extra pair of hands or a landscaper near you who knows what they’re doing.

Trees

Trees are wonderful things, but sometimes, a tree’s gotta go. If you’re not experienced, you should never do chainsawing, stump grinding, wood chipping and mulching, or land clearing yourself. That’s something you should leave up to an experienced landscaper with the right equipment and background to get the job done properly and safely. 

Building and installations

A big component of landscaping is installing things to make your space more functional and beautiful. Things like retaining walls, artificial grass installation, landscape lighting, or even garden benches to sit on. It’s always best to get a landscaper to help when it involves heavy lifting or specialist equipment. Garden landscapers can help you get your installations done safely and help you start enjoying your space much sooner.

Clear leaf mulch in garden

$150

Littlehampton SA 5250, Australia

16th May 2025

I need leaves and twigs collected from my front garden into big bags so we can drop off at the tip. I usually do this myself but am busy. It will take about 4-5 hours. This is a get down on hands and knees to pull twigs out from under bushes type task, so don't apply if you are not flexible enough to do this or have bad knees. Rakes, scooper, gloves, bags etc will be provided. I had an occasional gardener who left bcse he finished uni and have lost control of the garden situation! If you can show that you are a hard worker and can follow instructions of what needs doing, there will be a lot more work for you ongoing. I don't need someone to come once a week and do an hour, we do our own mowing etc. I need someone to come and stay most of the day and keep coming back until all autumn/winter jobs are done. Our outdoor area also needs throughly cleaning, decobwebbing etc on a regular basis. There's also pruning and deadheading that can be done. We are on 800m2 block so the back garden is bigger than listed but for initial task, it is just the front. Type of gardening: Garden cleanup Size of garden: 50m²-100m² Has green waste bin: Yes

Very happy with Carmel’s work and would happily book her again!
